"Thank you for helping us feel so appreciated" and "what a fun and uplifting evening" were comments made by teachers, students and parents at the sixth annual Teacher Appreciation Evening hosted by the Conifer/Evergreen Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, on April 17.

Ten mountain-area teachers were nominated by graduating seniors. The seniors picked a favorite teacher (kindergarten through high school) who had especially touched their hearts, helped and encouraged them and/or made a positive impact in their lives.

Students Mark Challis, Derek Lee, Amanda Lewis, Rochelle Simonsen, and Jeff Bickmore honored Conifer High School teachers Paulette McNeill, Phil Vagos, Torrey Carlton, Christine Stricker and Kyle Gillette. Student Cassidy Grigg chose Platte Canyon High School teacher Kip Otteson. Students Hannah McCarty and Zach Mitchell picked Evergreen High School teachers Chris Corbo and Nick Barbashack(moved). Student John O'Shea chose West Jefferson Middle School teacher Joe Cushing. Student Niels Karford picked The Little White Schoolhouse kindergarten teacher Mary Knudsen.

"It was a wonderful program." says Nanc' Adams, local Church public relations representative. "The emphasis of the evening was on how important the teachers are in the lives of children. These dedicated educators teach the values of hard work, honesty and integrity within their curriculum. They touch the hearts of students and leave a positive lasting impression on them. We are grateful to honor such fabulous teachers in our community."
